About Jimmy James Canales

As legend has it, Jimmy James Canales was born and raised here in San Antonio Texas, earned a BFA at the Museum School of Fine Arts, Boston and a MFA at the University of Texas San Antonio.

Among his many adventures Canales has romanced a cactus, walked across San Antonio twice, sacrificed a low-rider bicycle, survived a dual with the infamous Mat Kubo, eaten a bluebonnet, conjured Mapache Man, and invented Knife Skin Boots.

Starting this September 2014 until December, Artpace will become his new base-camp and home to a new series of exploits, experiments, performances.
